Q: Are artificial flowers allowed in the Cemetery?
A: NO. As of Spring 2018, Malvern Cemetery will no longer allow artificial flowers on the grounds. Aside from the aesthetics, the wildlife in the area are eating these, but plastic and metal, are a health risk. We understand that this new Board approved policy will be applauded by many and denounced by others, but we strongly feel this is the correct path to take.

A: You can find a detailed guide here on the care and maintenance of gravestones.
